I believe your problems can be solved with the "Terra Novum EZ GPO Tool" for
setting standby timeouts for computer and monitor etc for WinXP machines (Vista
already supports this AFAIK).
Check http://www.terranovum.com/projects/energystar/ez_gpo.html. It's free.
I've run this for well over a year, probably two, and it works fine. An
ADM-template is included IIRC, and the software itself comes as a msi-package
to
deploy ever AD with a GPO.
More info on http://www.terranovum.com/projects/energystar/index.html.
Are you on a green-spree at work? ;-)
